Abstract :
[en] In order to efficiently manage post-storm damages, a software was developed to be used as a <br />decision support system by the public authorities in order to take the best decisions as soon as <br />possible after a storm event. This tool provides an overview of the present situation and compares the efficiency of several prospective simulations. The model was built on the basis of previous storm events in Europe and its parameters were defined after a comprehensive literature review. The System Dynamics theory was used to simulate the complex scheme of post-storm management operations (inventory, sale, harvesting, transport, storage and transformation). The operator can modify thirty parameters to simulate the crisis situation.
